Answer:

17 °C

Explanation:

From specific Heat capacity.

Q = cm(t₂-t₁)................. Equation 1

Where Q = Heat absorb by the metal block, c = specific heat capacity of the metal block, m = mass of the metal block, t₂ = final temperature, t₁ = Initial temperature.

make t₁ the subject of the equation

t₁ = t₂-(Q/cm)............... Equation 2

Given: t₂ = 22 °C, Q = 5000 J, m = 4 kg, c = 250 J/kg.°c

Substitute into equation 2

t₁ = 22-[5000/(4×250)

t₁ = 22-(5000/1000)

t₁ = 22-5

t₁ = 17 °C

If my weight on Earth is 140lbs, what is my mass?
SashulF [63]

Answer:

63.57 kg

Explanation:

weight = 140 lbs

Let the mass  is m.

1 lbs = 4.45 N

The weight of an object is defined as the force with which our earth attracts the body towards its centre.

Weight is the product of mass of the body and the acceleration due to gravity of that planet.

W = m x g

On earth surface g = 9.8 m/s^2

Now convert lbs in newton

So, 140 lbs = 140 x 4.45 = 623 N

So, m x 9.8 = 623

m = 63.57 kg

Thus, the mass is 63.57 kg.

What mathematical formula correctly expresses the relationship between force, mass and acceleration? A. m = F + a B. F = m / a C
IRINA_888 [86]

D. F=ma

F is for force, and that equals two things, M for mass and A for acceleration. When mass is accelerated, it gives you force. Force equals multiplying mass and its acceleration.

Ksenya-84 [330]

Explanation:

Typically, business software technologies are complex, and software strenuous. Business software applications are also often upgraded for changes in business goals or procedures. Real-time systems usually require a lot of hardware components that are quite difficult to change and cannot be upgraded Usually, actual-time safety critical systems that required to be built based on well-planned processes.
